[ANSTHRLD] Conflict Check Assistance - sailor

[Crandall]

I admire his ABPS attempt. 
Three "objects". Anchors, cross, stars 
Four Tinctures: Or, Sable, Gules, Argent 
If we then use the field division, that makes complexity of eight, which I take to be excessive. 

I would put a ship in the first quarter and the anchor on the cross. Or remove the cross and put an anchor (argent) overall.
